FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations and market trends and expectations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the risks described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019. Our plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of our business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. This is especially underlined by the anticipated impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company, including the related effects to our business operations, results of operations, cash flows, and financial position, and our future responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we believe that our assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate, and therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved. We undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.

Significant events -- In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic, which has resulted in authorities across the globe implementing numerous measures to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and business limitations and shutdowns. In response to measures taken by state and local governments in mid- March, we elected to temporarily introduce two shifts at our production facilities to minimize the risk of infection and to implement health and safety actions recommended by government and health officials to better protect our employees who are required to be present at our production facilities. In addition, most of our employees were working remotely during the shutdown. Since the beginning of May, the businesses in Denmark have been opening up as the effect of COVID-19 has largely been constrained and the number of infections and fatalities decreased significantly. However, we now again see the number of infected people and fatalities increase all over the world, and tightening restrictions are again introduced in many countries. Since the start of September, we have again introduced limitations in the number of employees working directly on the production sites, and all employees who can work from home, is encouraged to do so.
We are unable to accurately predict the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our long-term financial condition, result of operations, liquidity and cash flows due to uncertainties, and our compliance with the measures implemented to avoid the spread of the virus did have a material adverse impact on our financial results for the second and third quarter of 2020. We have taken precautionary measures to reduce and/or defer operating expenses and preserve liquidity. Based on current projections, which are subject to numerous uncertainties, including the duration and severity of the pandemic and containment measures and the effect of these on the industries in which we compete, we believe our cash on hand, as well as our ongoing cash generated from operations, should be sufficient to cover our capital requirements for the next 12 months from the issuance of this quarterly report. In addition, as a result of reduced order intake and decreased manufacturing levels, our future gross profit will likely be impacted until such time that we are able to operate our manufacturing facilities as originally planned prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Notwithstanding the reduction in our manufacturing levels, based on our current rate of production, we believe that we will be able to fulfill most, if not all, of our existing delivery obligations in 2020.
While we anticipate that the foregoing measures are temporary, we cannot predict the specific duration for which these precautionary measures will stay in effect, and our business may be adversely impacted as a result of the pandemic’s global economic impact. In the future, the pandemic may cause reduced demand for our products and transportation restrictions, especially if it results in a prolonged global recession.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash-- The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, and 2018, the Company holds $1,678,936held $1,515,632 and $0,$2,714,173, respectively, of restricted cash.

The restricted cash is held in a local financial institutionorders and will be released as order deliveries is made and accepted byfor warranties after the customer.delivery of sales orders. The Company had no balances held in a financial institution in the United States in excess of federally insured amounts at on September 30, 2019 2020 and December 31, 2018. 2019.

Inventory --– Inventory directly purchased is carried at the lower of cost or market,net realizable value, as determined on the first-in, first-outfirst-in, first-out method.
For inventory produced, standard costs that approximate actual cost on the FIFO method are used to value inventory. Standard costs are reviewed at least annually by management, or more often in the event that circumstances indicate a change in cost has occurred.
Work in process and finished goods include material, labor and production overhead costs. The Company adjusts the value of its inventory to the extent that management determines that the cost cannot be recovered due to obsolescence or other factors.
Inventory valuation adjustments for excess and obsolete inventory are calculated based on current inventory levels, movement, expected useful lives, and estimated future demand of the products and spare parts.
Contracts Assets – Contract assets are the Company’s rights to consideration in exchange for goods or services and is recognized when a performance obligation has been satisfied but has not yet been billed. Contract assets are transferred to receivables when the right to consideration is unconditional and billed per the terms of the contractual agreement. Contract assets also includes unbilled receivables, which usually comprise the last invoice remaining after the delivery of the water treatment unit, where revenue is recognized at the transfer of control based upon signed acceptance of the water treatment unit by the customer. Most commonly this invoice is sent to the customer at commissioning of the product or no later than 12 months after the delivery. Further included in Contract Assets are short-term receivables such as VAT and other receivables.
Leases -- The Company leases certain vehicles, real property and office equipment under lease agreements. The Company evaluates each lease to determine its appropriate classification as an operating lease or finance lease for financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities under finance leases are recorded at the lower of the present value of future minimum lease payments or the fair market value of the related assets. Assets under finance leases are amortized using the straight-line method over the initial lease term. Amortization of assets under finance leases is included in depreciation expense.
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02,2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”), which requires organizations that lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. Subsequent ASUs were issued to provide additional guidance.
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Topic 842 using the optional transition method, of adoption, under which the new standards were applied prospectively rather than restating the prior periods presented. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted, which among other things, allowed the Company to carryforwardcarry forward the historical lease classification. The Company made the accounting policy elections to not recognize lease assets and lease liabilities with an initial term of 12 months or less and to not separate lease and non-lease components. The Company’s accounting for finance leases (formerly called capital lease obligations) remains substantially unchanged. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities were recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date was used in determining the present value. The Company will use the implicit rate when readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also included prepaid lease payments and was reduced by accrued lease payments. The Company’s lease terms accounting may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that those options will be exercised. Operating lease costcosts for lease payments will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet was the recognition of a ROU asset of $2.1 million and an operating lease liability of $2.1 million primarily for office space leases. The Company’s adoption of Topic 842 did not materially impact its results of operation.
Property and Equipment-- Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized upon being placed in service. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to ten years.
Long-Term InvestmentsGoodwill and Intangible Assets -- Investments in non-consolidated companiesThe purchase price of an acquired company is allocated between intangible assets and the net tangible assets of the acquired business, with the residual purchase price recorded as goodwill. The determination of the value of the intangible assets acquired involves certain judgments and estimates. These judgments can include, but are included in long-term investmentsnot limited to, the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the consolidated balance sheetfuture and the appropriate weighted average cost of capital.
Acquired intangible assets with determinable useful lives are accounted for underamortized on a straight-line or accelerated basis over the cost methodestimated periods benefited, ranging from one to ten years. Customer relationships and equity method. For these non-quoted investments, we regularly reviewother non-contractual intangible assets with determinable lives are amortized over periods of five years.
The Company evaluates the assumptions underlyingrecoverability of long-lived assets by comparing the operating performance andcarrying amount of an asset to estimated future net undiscounted cash flow forecasts based on information requested from these privately held companies. Generally, this information mayflows generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be more limited, may not beimpaired, the impairment recognized is measured as timely as and may be less accurate than information available from publicly traded companies. Assessing each investment'sthe amount by which the carrying value requires significant judgment by management. If it is determined that there is another than temporary decline inof the assets exceeds the fair value of a non-public equity security, we write down the investmentassets. The evaluation of recoverability involves estimates of future operating cash flows based upon certain forecasted assumptions, including, but not limited to, its fair valuerevenue growth rates, gross profit margins, and record the related write down as an investment loss in the consolidated statement of operations.
Intangible Assets -- Definite life intangible assets include patents. The Company accounts for definite life intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and amortized the patents on a straight-line basisoperating expenses over the estimatedexpected remaining useful life of two to ten years. the related asset. A shortfall in these estimated operating cash flows could result in an impairment charge in the future.
Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated annually for impairment at the reporting unit level or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. The Company estimates the fair value of the reporting unit using the discounted cash flow and market approaches. Forecast of future cash flows are based on the Company’s best estimate of future net sales and operating expenses, using primarily expected category expansion, pricing, market segment fundamentals, and general economic conditions.
Revenue Recognition and Sales Incentives
Accounting policy--: On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which includes clarifying ASUs issued in 2015,2016 and 2017 (“new revenue standard”). The new revenue standard was applied to all open revenue contracts using the modified retrospective method as of January 1, 2018. The new revenue standard did not have a material impact on revenue recognition.

For membranemembranes, diesel particulate filters and DPF product sales,plastic components, revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied, which occurs when control of the membrane, DPFproducts transfers to the customer or when services are transferred torendered by the customer.Company. The majority of the Company's sales contracts contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when title and risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. This generally occurs when the product is shipped or accepted by the customer. Revenue for service contracts are recognized as the services are provided. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring the goods or providing services. The satisfaction of performance obligations under the terms of a revenue contract generally gives rise to the right for payment from the customer. The Company's standard payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. Pre-payments received prior to satisfaction of performance obligations are recorded as a customer depositContract liability. Given the insignificant days between revenue recognition and receipt of payment, financing components do not exist between the Company and its customers.
For contracts with customers that include multiple performance obligations, judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations specified in these contracts are distinct and should be accounted for as separate revenue transactions for recognition purposes. For such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using expected cost-plus margin.
System sales are recognized when the Company transfers control based upon signed acceptance of the system by the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment of the system based onin accordance with the terms of the contract. For the majority of systems, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when products are shipped to the customer according to the terms of the contract or purchase order. In connection with the system sale, it is normal procedure to issue a FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) stating that the customer has accepted the performance of the system as it is being shipped from theour production facility in Hobro. As part of the performance obligation, the customer is normally offered commissioning services (final assembly and configuration at a place designated by the customer), and this commissioning is therefore considered a second performance obligation and is valued at cost, with the addition of a standard gross margin. This second performance obligation is recognized as revenue at the time of provision of the commissioning services together with the cost incurred. Part of the invoicing to the customer is also attributed to the commissioning, and at transfer of the control of the system (i.e. the first performance obligation), some of the invoicing will still be awaiting commissioning and is therefore recognized as Other Receivables, while the revenue related to the commissioning is recognized as Deferred Income.Contract assets.
Aftermarket sales represent parts, extended warrantywarranties and maintenance services. For the sale of aftermarket parts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when parts are shipped to the customer or services are provided.customer. When customers are given the right to return eligible parts and accessories, the Company estimates the expected returns based on an analysis of historical experience. The Company adjusts estimated revenues at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration expected to be received changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. The Company recognizes revenue for extended warranty and maintenance agreements based on the standalone selling price over the life of the contract. For invoicing to customers where the transfer of control has not occurred (prepayments), the invoiced amount is recognized as Contract assets / Contract liabilities.
The Company has received long-term contracts for grants from government entities for the development and use of silicon carbide membranes in various water filtration and treatment applications and historically in the installation of various water filtrations systems. We measure transfer of control of the performance obligation on long-term contracts utilizing the cost-to-cost measure of progress, with cost of revenue including direct costs, such as labor and materials. Under the cost-to-cost approach, the use of estimated costs to complete each performance obligation is a significant variable in the process of determining recognized revenue and a significant factor in the accounting for such performance obligations. The timing of when we bill our customers is generally dependent upon advance billings terms, milestone billings based on completion of certain phases of the work or when services are provided, or products are shipped. Projects with performance obligations recognized over time that have costs and estimated earnings recognized to date in excess of cumulative billings are reported on our balance sheetssheet as Contract assets. Projects with performance obligations recognized over time that have cumulative billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings recognized to date are reported on our balance sheetssheet as Contract liabilities.
In Denmark, Value Added Tax (“VAT”) of 25%Contract assets are the Company’s rights to consideration in exchange for goods or services and is recognized when a performance obligation has been satisfied but has not yet been billed. Contract assets are transferred to receivables when the right to consideration is unconditional and billed per the terms of the invoice amount is collected with respectcontractual agreement. Contract liabilities are payments received from customers prior to satisfaction of performance obligations, and these balances are typically related to prepayments for third-party expenses that are incurred shortly after billing. Contract liabilities also include deferred revenue related to the sales of goods on behalf of tax authorities. The VAT collectedsecond performance obligation stated under Revenue Recognition, where the obligation is not revenueattributed to the commissioning of the Company; instead, the amount is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet until such VAT is paid to the authorities. water treatment system.

SuchAdvertising costs are included in sales expenses, and total advertising costs amounted to $8,280$82,545 and $21,693$80,630 for the threenine months ended September 30, 2020 and $80,630 and $25,0182019, respectively. Total advertising costs for the nine monthsthree months´ period ended September 30, 2019 2020 and 2018, respectively.2019 respectively, were $20,522 and $8,280.
Research and Development Cost-- The Company expenses research and development costs for the development of new products as incurred. Included in operating expense was $189,216 and $152,849 for the three months, and $591,572 and $498,526, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 2020 and 20182019 were $883,752 and $591,572, respectively, of research and development costs. For the three months period ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, research and development costs were $256,239 and $189,216, respectively.
Income Taxes-- The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires an asset and liability approach forin accounting for income taxes.
Income Income/(Loss) Per Share-- The Company calculates earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per common share (EPS) areis based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share areis based on shares outstanding (computed as under basic EPS) and potentially dilutive common shares. Potential common shares included in the diluted earnings per share calculation include in-the-money stock options, RSUs, and warrants that have been granted but have not yet been exercised.
Stock Options and Awards-- The Company has granted stock options to certain key employees duringDuring the years presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, (see Note 7).the Company has granted stock options and awards. The Company accounts for options in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Non-cashStock-based compensation costs of $23,167$270,238 and $5,833$174,778 have been recognized for the vesting of options and stock awards granted to Directors, management and certain key employees for the three months, and $174,778 and $93,267 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 2020 and 2018,2019, respectively. For the three months´ period ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, stock-based compensation was $46,681 and $23,167 respectively.
Warrant Liability-- The Company issued common stock warrants in May 2020 in conjunction with an equity financing. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), the fair value of these warrants was initially classified as a liability on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet because, according to the original terms of the warrant, a fundamental transaction could have given rise to an obligation of the Company to pay cash to its warrant holders, which was out of the control of the Company. On August 12, 2020 the terms of the prefunded warrant were amened and the potential obligation of the Company to pay cash to its warrant holders were removed. From the date of the execution of the amended warrant, it qualifies as an equity instrument and the liability measured at fair value on August 12, 2020 of $3,476,250 has been reclassified to the Company´s Equity. Corresponding changes in the fair value measurement of the warrants are recognized in earnings on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations in each subsequent period.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments-- The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820. The authoritative guidance, that,which among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurringnon-recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tierthree-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
● | Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
● | Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and |
● | Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. |
Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, prepaid expenses, investments, accounts payable and accrued expenses capital lease obligations and notes payable approximatesapproximate their recorded values due to their short-term maturities.
Accounting Estimates-- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets including accounts receivable,receivable; allowance for doubtful accounts; contract assets; reserve for excess and obsolete inventory; depreciation and impairment of property, plant and equipment; goodwill;goodwill and intangible assets; liabilities including contract liabilities and contingencies; the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; warrant liability; and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In June 2018, March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“Topic 718”ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): ImprovementsFacilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.

Anycriteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. This ASU is intended to help stakeholders during the global market-wide reference rate transition impactperiod and will be in effect for a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption.limited time through December 31, 2022. Adoption is permitted at any time. The Company adopted this guidance inis currently evaluating the first quarter of 2019, and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, On March 9, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Accounting Standards board (“FASB”)Instruments.” This ASU was issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-15 (“ASU 2018-15”), Intangibles - Goodwillto clarify and Other - Internal-Use Software (Topic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. ASU 2018-15 aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement thatimprove various financial instruments topics. The guidance has various effective dates but is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The updated guidance isbasically effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This guidance will be effective for entities for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020 on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt the new standard effective March 1, 2021 and do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13,2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurement by removing, modifying and adding certain disclosures. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the SEC adopted amendments to simplify certain disclosure requirements, as set forth in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which includes a requirement for entities to present the changes in shareholders’ equity in the interim financial statements in quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. This amendment is effective for all filings made on or after November 5, 2018. In light of the timing of effectiveness of the amendment and proximity to the filing date for most filers’ quarterly reports, the SEC has allowed for a filer’s first presentation of the changes in shareholders’ equity to be included in its Form 10-Q for the quarter that begins after the effective date. The Company adopted the SEC’s amendment to interim disclosures in the first quarter of 2019 and has presented the changes in shareholders’ equity on an interim basis.
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASC 842"), which requires lessees to recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets and related lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases greater than one year in duration. We adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach did not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of ROU assets of approximately $2.1 million and lease liabilities of approximately $2.1 million for all of our lease agreements with original terms of greater than one year. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 4 for the required disclosures relating to our lease agreements.
In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-18,2016-18, Restricted Cash that requires companies, in the Statement of Cash Flows, to explain the changes during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Consequently, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the Statement of Cash Flows. For the period ended September 30, 2019 2020, the Company has recorded $1,678,936$1,515,632 as Restricted cash, and $9,957,472$12,976,917 as Unrestricted cash, and a total of $11,636,408$14,492,549 as Cash, Cash equivalents and Restricted cash. For the period ended December 31, 2018 2019, the amounts were $0$2,714,173 in Restricted cash and $3,776,111$7,069,759 in Unrestricted cash.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, including subsequently issued ASUs to clarify the implementation guidance in ASU 2016-13. The amendment introduces new guidance for credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost, including finance receivables and trade receivables. Under this new model, expected credit losses are based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect collectability, replacing the previous incurred loss model. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020 and concluded there was no material impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

NOTE 3 - LINES OF CREDIT
In connection with certain orders, we have to provide the customer with a working guarantee or a prepayment guarantee or security bond. For that purpose, we have a guaranteed credit line of DKK 94,620 (approximately $13,800 at September 30, 2019) with a bank, subject to certain base limitations. As of September 30, 2018, we had DKK 94,620 (approximately $14,690) in working guarantee against the credit line. The credit line is guaranteed by Vækstfonden (the Danish state's investments fund) and is secured by a restricted account at the bank of LiqTech Systems.
NOTE 4 - LEASES
The Company leases certain vehicles, real property and office equipment under lease agreements. The Company evaluates each lease to determine its appropriate classification as an operating lease or finance lease for financial reporting purposes. The majority of our operating leases are non-cancelable operating leases for production and office space in Hobro, Aarhus and Copenhagen, andDenmark as well as in White Bear Lake, Minnesota.
On January 1, 2019,During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, cash paid for amounts included for the measurement of lease liabilities was $799,737, and the Company adopted Topic 842 requiring organizations thatrecorded operating lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. The Company elected to use the transition methodexpense of adoption, under which the new standards were applied prospectively rather than restating the prior periods presented. As a result of the modified retrospective transition method of adoption, certain accounts lack a comparable value for the same period of 2018, specifically accounts and values associated with operating leases and ROU assets.$881,641.

The specific terms and conditions of thosethe warranties vary depending upon the product sold and the country in which the Company does business. Revenue received for the sale of extended warranty contracts is deferred and recognized in the same manner as the costs incurred to perform under the warranty contracts.

Factors that affect the warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims and the cost per claim. The Company has assessed the adequacy of the recorded warranty liability at the end of the 3rd quarter 2019 based on realized warranty expenses for the 4 years passed since the start-up of delivery of water treatment systems.

NOTE 9 - ACQUISITION
On September 4, 2019 our wholly owned subsidiary LiqTech International acquired the outstanding equity of BS Plastic, a specialized plastic manufacturer based in Denmark. The acquisition allows LiqTech to in-source certain components of its proprietary ceramic silicon carbide water filtration systems for closed loop marine scrubber applications.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The purchase accounting process has not been completed primarily because the valuation of acquired assets has not been finalized. We expect to complete the purchase accounting as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date. We do not believe there will be material adjustments. The initial purchase price of $1,332,090 was funded through existing cash. The prior equity holder of BS Plastic may also receive an additional $888,060 if certain targets are met on an annual basis over the next 3 years. This contingent earn-out is accrued as long-term and short-term liability in the balance sheet. Based on the estimated fair value at the time of purchase, the Company recorded an estimate of intangible assets in the amount of $614,300 which may include goodwill once the final valuation analysis is completed.
The purchase price calculation is as follows:
Cash | $ | 1,332,090 | ||
Liabilities short-term | 296,020 | |||
Liabilities long-term | 592,040 | |||
Total | $ | 2,220,150 |

The increasechange in revenue consists of a decrease in sales consisted of liquid filters of $6,021,586 and in sales of DPFs of $320,792, offset by an increase in sales of liquid filters and systemsplastics of $6,494,640, a$218,811. The decrease in sales of DPF of $510,800 and an increase in revenue related to development projects of $57,188. Further, the revenue from plastic products (acquired at September 1, 2019) amounted to $284,486. The increase in revenue for our liquid filters and water treatment systems is duea result of the negative impact of the COVID-19 virus that has caused a significant decrease in new orders since the start of 2020. The demand for our DPFs also decreased in the period, but we see increased interest in environmental solutions to projectsreduce global CO2-emissions, and received new orders in the third quarter of 2020. The increase in sales of plastic components is related to the marine scrubber industry. The decreasebusiness acquired in our DPF revenue is mainly due to a decrease in demand compared to the same period last year.September 2019.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 20192020 was $2,227,738$(308,480) compared to a gross profit of $288,739$2,227,738 for the same period in 2018,2019, representing an increasea decrease of $1,938,999$2,536,218 or 671.5%114%. The increasedecrease in gross profit wasis due to highthe decline in sales activity, even though that several low margin strategic projects were delivered withof liquid filters and water treatment systems where sales command a lowhigher gross margin. This was offsetresulted in the gross profit being negatively impacted by improved manufacturing costs and also a reassessmentrelated to decisions made prior to the impact of COVID-19, as the Company had decided to ramp-up investments in additional employees, improvement of the warranty provisionsbusiness facilities and other fixed costs that are now included in Cost of Goods sold. Further the initial effect of closing our activities in North America has resulted in a write-off of inventory in the amount of $170,000, which contributed to improvedhas been expensed in the period.

The increase in revenuesales of plastic components is related to the business acquired in September 2019. The decrease in demand for our liquid filters, and water treatment systems and DPFs is mainly due to projects related toimpacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which have resulted in significant restrictions and business limitations across the globe, causing a significant decline in delivery of water treatment systems for the marine scrubber industry. The decrease in our DPF revenue is mainly due to a decrease in demand compared to the same period last year.

Other Income (Loss)
Net other income (loss) for the nine months endingended September 30, 2019,2020 was $(1,511,383) compared to $271,519 for the samecomparable period in 2018.2019, representing a decrease of $1,782,902. Included in the net other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is the negative effect of $901,250 resulting from the fair value measurement of the prefunded warrants issued in May 2020. Additionally, losses on currency translations due to the negative impact of the USD/DKK exchange rate has impacted Net other income (loss) for the period resulting in an expense of $821,681 compared to income of $244,872 in the comparable period, representing a decrease of $1,066,553. Further, Net income (loss) is positively affected by $301,573 relating to the gain on modification of the earn-out agreement with the former owner of BS Plastic A/S, where the former owner has agreed to reduce the earn-out consideration from a total of DKK 6 million over three years to a fixed earn-out of DKK 4 million over a period of two years.

This change was primarily attributable to the significant decrease in revenue and the increase in operating expenses caused primarily by the growth in headcount to support additional sales and production. Further losses on currency translations due to the negative impact of the USD/DKK exchange rate and the negative fair value adjustment of $901,250 related to the prefunded warrant liability have widened the Net Loss for the period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic, which has resulted in authorities across the globe implementing numerous measures to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and business limitations and shutdowns. In response to measures taken by state and local governments in mid-March, we elected to temporarily introduce two shifts at our production facilities to minimize the risk of infection and to implement health and safety actions recommended by government and health officials to better protect our employees who must work at our production facilities. Otherwise, most of our employees worked remotely during the shutdown. Since the beginning of May, businesses in Denmark began opening up as the effect of COVID-19 had largely been contained and the number of infections and fatalities decreased significantly. However, we now again see the number of infected people and fatalities increasing all over the world and tight restrictions are again being introduced in many countries. Since the start of September, we have again introduced limitations in the number of employees working directly at our production sites. All employees who can work from home are encouraged to do so.
We are unable to predict the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our long-term financial condition, the results of operations, liquidity and cash flows due to uncertainties. Our compliance with the measures implemented to avoid the spread of the virus have had a material adverse impact on our financial results for the second and third quarters of 2020. To the extent possible, we have taken precautionary measures to reduce and/or defer operating expenses and preserve liquidity. Based on current projections, which are subject to numerous uncertainties, including the duration and severity of the pandemic and containment measures and the effect of these on the industries in which we compete, we believe our cash on hand, as well as our ongoing cash generated from operations, should be sufficient to cover our capital requirements for at least the next 12 months from the issuance of this quarterly report. In addition, as a result of the reduced order intake and decreased manufacturing levels, our future gross profit will also likely be unfavorably impacted until such time that we are able to operate our manufacturing facilities at higher capacity levels as originally planned prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Notwithstanding the reduction in our manufacturing levels, based on our current rate of production, we believe that we will be able to fulfill most, if not all, of our existing delivery obligations in 2020.
While we anticipate that the foregoing measures are temporary, we cannot predict the specific duration for which these precautionary measures will stay in effect, and our business may be adversely impacted as a result of the pandemic’s global economic impact. In the future, the pandemic may cause reduced demand for our products, especially if it results in a global recession. It could also lead to volatility in access to our products due to government actions impacting our ability to produce and ship products.
We have historically satisfied our capital and liquidity requirements through offerings of equity instruments, internally generated cash from operations and our available lines of credit. At the filing date, the Company had an available line of credit from the bank amounting to DKK20,000,000 ($3,000,000), which is used for a leasing arrangement and guarantees issued to customers for prepayments and for warranties after delivery.
Additionally, on May 21, 2020, the Company completed a private placement with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 1,085,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a purchase price of $5.00 per share for gross proceeds of $4,662,125, including costs of $762,875 for placement fees, legal fees, auditor fees and other cost related to the capital raise, and a prefunded warrant to purchase an aggregate of 515,000 shares of Common Stock, at a purchase price of $5.00 per share, for gross proceeds of $2,575,000.
On September 30, 2020, we had cash of $14,492,549 and net working capital of $18,654,526, and at December 31, 2019, we had cash (including restricted cash) of $11,636,408$9,783,932 and net working capital of $19,779,324 and at December 31, 2018, we had cash of $3,776,111 and$17,155,126. On September 30, 2020, our net working capital of $6,753,593. At September 30, 2019, our working capitalhas increased by $13,025,731$1,499,400 compared to December 31, 2018 due2019 primarily related to the increase in cash as a registered public offeringresult of common stockthe private placement in the second quarter of 2019. Total current assets (excluding cash) were $18,427,192 and $7,597,095 at September 30, 2019 and at December 31, 2018, respectively, and total current liabilities (excluding finance debt and tax) were $9,571,535 and $4,605,254 at September 30, 2019 and at December 31, 2018, respectively. May 2020.
In connection with certain orders, we have to provide the customer with a working guarantee, or a prepayment guarantee or a security bond. For that purpose, we havemaintain a guarantee credit line of DKK10,000,000 (approximately $1,500,000). The credit line is secured by a cash deposit of $1,500,000. Further, we have a guarantee for a specific project delivered in 2016 of DKK 94,620 (approximately $13,800$14,878 at September 30, 2019)2020) with a bank, subject to certain base limitations. AsThis line of September 30, 2018, we had DKK 94,620 (approximately $14,690) in working guarantees against the credit line. The credit line is guaranteed by Vækstfonden (the Danish state's investments fund) and is secured by a restricted account at the bankcertain assets of LiqTech Systems.
On May 24, 2019, we issued 2,215,862 shares of common stock in a public offering for gross proceeds of approximately $16.2 million, which has improved our liquidity. We believe that our existing cashSystems such as receivables, inventory, and cash equivalents at September 30, 2019, along with cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to allow us to fund our current operating plan over the next 12 months. However, we may need additional funds to sustain and grow our business, and we may raise such funds from time to time through public or private sales of equity or debt securities. Financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could materially and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations. Additional equity financing may be dilutive to holders of our common stock, and debt financing, if available, may involve significant cash payment obligations and covenants that restrict our ability to operate our business.equipment.
Cash Flows

Further improvement in cash flow from account payables improved the cash position by $1,782,897 and accrued expenses by $2,096,824. Cash flow from account receivables had a negative impact on cash used of $3,283,087 related to the larger number of shipped orders in the September 2019. Further cash flow from other receivables increased by $2,546,1692019 was mainly due to reductions in Accounts receivable of $7,288,289 and Contract assets/liabilities (net) of $4,623,774, off-set by the larger numberdecrease in Net Income (Loss) of shipped orders, as this increase relates to the last payment$6,971,118 and a decrease in Accounts payable of most orders, which is normally invoiced when the commissioning has taken place. Deposits have increased by $2,138,406 due to prepayments made for the new furnaces in the production facility in Ballerup.$4,128,401.

Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates
The methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results that we report in our consolidated financial statements. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical accounting estimates include:
● |
| |
● | the assessment of allowance for product warranties, which impacts gross profit; | |
● | the assessment of collectability of accounts receivable, which impacts operating expenses when and if we record bad debt or adjust the allowance for doubtful accounts; | |
● | the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets, which impacts gross | |
● | the recognition and measurement of current and deferred income taxes (including the measurement of uncertain tax positions), which impact our provision for taxes; | |
● | the valuation of inventory, which impacts gross | |
● | the recognition and measurement of loss contingencies, which impact gross | |

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the design and effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) and (c) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this AnnualQuarterly Report. We have excluded the acquired company LiqTech Plastics (formerly known as BS Plastic) from the assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of September 30, 2020 due to the limited time that the Company has been part of the LiqTech Group and an immaterial impact on the consolidated financial statements. A weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a misstatement of the registrant's financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or override of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives
Based on thisupon that evaluation, Managementour Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that due to the limited number of employees in the finance department, our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2020 were not effective as of such datethe period covered by this Quarterly Report due to material weaknesses that were identified.in internal controls over financial reporting. For more information on material weaknesses identified by management, please reference our Form 10-K filed on March 30, 2020 for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The implementation of the new ERP-system from the beginning of 2020 together with implementation of additional internal control procedures, has strengthened the Company´s internal control environment. From the report received from the Company´s external auditor as a result of the audit of 2019, we have focused on improving controls to address each reported deficiency; however, the impact of COVID-19 restrictions has restricted the pace of the progress significantly.

In response to the identified material weaknesses, our management, with oversight from the Company’s Audit Committee, has been and will continue to dedicate necessary resources to enhance the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and remediate the identified material weaknesses. As an example of such remediation, the Company in 2019 we have hired additional qualified employees into the finance department, and we plan to enhance our control environmentcontinue to remedy this lack of effectivenesswork on remediating the material weaknesses during 20192020 by improving competencies and 2020 in connection with implementing procedures to minimize the identified weaknesses.processes.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Management's Remediation Initiatives
Management has been actively developing a remediation plan and been implementing new controls and processes to address the aforementioned deficiencies. Upon identifying the material weakness in of our internal controls, we have taken actions to strengthen our internal control structure.
Management continues to meet with key managers and control owners to evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls and to ensure implementation of remediation initiatives.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
An internal control system, no matter how well-conceivedwell conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by Managementmanagement override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NotWe are unable to accuratelypredict the full impact of COVID-19 on our business, and the COVID-19 pandemic may adversely impact our business as a result of the pandemic’s global economic impact.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic, which has resulted in authorities across the globe implementing numerous measures to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and business limitations and shutdowns. In response to measures taken by state and local governments in mid-March, we elected to temporarily introduce two shifts at our production facilities to minimize the risk of infection and to implement health and safety actions recommended by government and health officials to better protect our employees who are required to be present at our production facilities. In addition, most of our employees were working remotely during the shutdown. Since the beginning of May, the businesses in Denmark have been opening up as the effect of COVID-19 has largely been constrained and the number of infections and fatalities decreased significantly. However, we now again see the number of infected people and fatalities increasing all over the world, and tightening restrictions are again introduced in many countries. Since the start of September, we have again introduced limitations in the number of employees working directly on the production sites, and all employees who can work from home are encouraged to do so.
We are unable to accurately predict the full impact that COVID-19 will have on our long-term financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and cash flows due to uncertainties, and our compliance with the measures implemented to avoid the spread of the virus did have a material adverse impact on our financial results for the second and third quarters of 2020. We have taken precautionary measures to reduce and/or defer operating expenses and preserve liquidity. In addition, as a “smaller reporting company.” result of reduced order intake and decreased manufacturing levels, our future gross profit will likely be impacted until such time that we are able to operate our manufacturing facilities as originally planned prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
While we anticipate that the foregoing measures are temporary, we cannot predict the specific duration for which these precautionary measures will stay in effect, and our business may be adversely impacted as a result of the pandemic’s global economic impact. In the future, the pandemic may cause reduced demand for our products, especially if it results in a global recession. It could also lead to volatility in access to our products due to government actions impacting our ability to produce and ship products.
